In this episode of the Perceptive Photographer Podcast, I delve into the continuing dialog and conversations around the evolving role of generative AI in photography. Reflecting on my recent experiences, I share frustrations about people’s reactions without justification and start to set the stage for a broader discussion on AI’s impact.

As I always try to call out, there is a difference between that which is completely generative AI, which is a distinct art form requiring its own critique and classification and photography tools that use AI that make what would have been done anyway easiler.

In the conversation today, I am trying to encourage photographers to reflect on their boundaries regarding image manipulation and engage in meaningful conversations about the ethical implications of AI tools. Ultimately, I urge listeners to embrace the dialogue and continue growing as photographers.

Also, don’t forget to check out the upcoming workshops on color photography and the creative process if you want to deepen your understanding and skills in your work.
